Description

"From the command line, cd into a directory where you’d like to store your code, then run the command django-admin.py startproject mysite. This will create a mysite directory in your current directory." This will not work when the the project name is the same as the parent directory. (Eg. in the folder mysite, you can't start mysite.) Django will fail to import the settings.

Wrong duplicate, the problem is in #1908 and it is repeatable with Django 1.1.2 and Python 2.7
